IT-inspired Halloween costumes for the lazy

It’s almost Halloween—you know, that time of year when your colleagues and friends silently judge you on your creativity and craftiness. Instead of breaking out your trusty Freddy mask, vampire teeth or witch hat, change it up with these cheeky-sarcastic IT-themed costumes that take little to no effort.

Internet of Things

Wear a net and attach random things to it.

White hat / black hat hacker

Put a white or black hat atop your head and bring a kid’s toy machete (make sure it is very visibly a toy— you don’t want to get HR involved).

Big Data

Are you the tallest person in your office? Good for you! Get a name tag and write “Data” on it.

Social media

Attach wax lips to magazines and newspapers and adhere them to your shirt.
